Teen Kanya

Share on:

Extremely rare vintage Satyajit Ray movie poster of one of the finest films ever made in Bengali cinema, Teen Kanya (1961) for sale.

Written and directed by master filmmaker Satyajit Ray, Teen Kanya is a compilation of three short stories authored by Rabindranath Tagore. The film starred Soumitra Chatterjee & Aparna Sen in lead roles.

Teen Kanya won the 1961 National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Bengali, making this rare Satyajit Ray movie poster highly collectible!

Printed and circulated during the debut release of the film (somewhere in the early 1960s), this is one of the rarest Satyajit Ray film posters for sale that one can buy.

Teen Kanya bagged the Selznick Golden Laurel for Best Film at the 13th Berlin International Film Festival. The critical acclaim and success of the film led the Academy Film Archive to preserve it in 1996.

Before venturing into film making, Satyajit Ray worked as a commercial artist. It is widely believed that he designed the original posters of quite a few of his films himself, including the beautiful poster featured here for sale.
